Abstract
Bovine endometritis is a common and serious disease that has caused huge economic losses and a decline in production performance in the dairy cattle industry. This study aimed to investigate the regulatory role of bta-miR-25 in Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced BEND and its impact on endometritis. In this study, an in vitro endometritis model was constructed using LPS. The expression levels of proinflammatory cytokines IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, and TNF-α were significantly increased in the model, while the expression of bta-miR-25 was upregulated, and its target gene DUSP10 was downregulated. We further validated DUSP10 as a target gene of bta-miR-25 through a dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Knockdown of bta-miR-25 can increase the decreased expression of DUSP10 levels and inhibited the increase in inflammatory factors induced by LPS. Subsequently, overexpression DUSP10 also inhibited the LPS-induced increase in inflammatory factors. In summary, bta-miR-25 can inhibit LPS-induced endometritis by over the expression of DUSP10. bta-miR-25 and DUSP10 may serve as biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for endometritis in dairy cows.

Studies on all model organisms, from invertebrates to humans, are suitable. Examples include, but are not restricted to:
Infection, autoimmunity, transplantation, immunodeficiencies, inflammation and tumor immunology
Mechanisms of induction, regulation and termination of innate and adaptive immunity
Intercellular communication, cooperation and regulation
Intracellular mechanisms of immunity (endocytosis, protein trafficking, pathogen recognition, antigen presentation, etc)
Mechanisms of action of the cells and molecules of the immune system
Structural analysis
Development of the immune system
Comparative immunology and evolution of the immune system
"Omics" studies and bioinformatics
Vaccines, biotechnology and therapeutic manipulation of the immune system (therapeutic antibodies, cytokines, cellular therapies, etc)
Technical developments.
